One of my first make-up experiences that I can remember is my Grandma taking me to the drug store and buying me a Max Factor book that came with 3 or 5 different lipsticks. My Grandma loved Marilyn Monroe and we bonded over watching her movies and singing her songs. She passed down her love of make-up and skincare to me as well. Her skin was always so beautiful and soft, even well after the alzheimer's took over. I remember her using her Oil of Olay moisturizer, making sure to use to one with SPF during the daytime, and her Estée Lauder lipsticks, which my mom ended up giving to me when we had to move my Grandma into a care home. I held on to them for years and I'm not sure what happened to them. I'm afraid that maybe they got lost during a cleaning spree before moving. What I wouldn't give to have them now...or even just to remember what shades they were. She had a beautiful pink mauve shade and a pinky-coral shade that I remember loving the most, and her lipsticks always had flat tops and never kept the angled shape to them. I do still have a compact mirror of hers that I carry with me every day, her eyelash curler, a bottle of her Chanel No. 5 she gave me when I discovered it was Marilyn's favorite perfume, her rat-tail brush she used to tease and fluff her hair with, and her last toiletries bag-which I use every day as well. I learned so much about beauty and how to take care of my skin from her and still apply some of those lessons to my daily routine.

[@denisefreitas6727]

We never get tired of Marilyn! She's naturally beautiful, but every woman needs good beauty products. Loved the video, Laura! 💖

[@kimsdiamondearring1429]

Marilyn is beautiful, although she had a nose job and a chin implant…but also an alleged boob job.

[@shoozy9352]

Naturally?.

[@rrroxlana]

She was low-key prettier before she had plastic surgery

[@DizzyLeigh]

I watched a video Erin Parsons Makeup did, about Marilyn's lipstick. Erin collects old makeup, is a makeup artist and loves anything Monroe. She actually bought 1 of her used lipsticks and some of Monroes other makeup. Erin found that she actually wore orange lipstick most of the time. It shows up as red on TV, because they couldn't get the colour correct, as colour hadn't been perfected yet on screen. Erin noted that the best dupe is Revlon Siren.

[@Laurajaneatelier]

She also wore several shades of red that was just a dupe for the orange one she had

[@morganeg759]

Apparently she used to trace a light line on her bottom lashes and outer corners under her eyeliner to give the illusion of the shadow of her lashes which made her lashes appear even thicker etc. You can see the line in some of the pictures once you know :)

[@donttalktomeyoureannoying8736]

Liz Taylor has a mutation of a double row of eyelashes. Now she’s the lucky one 😫😫

[@WillBlindYouWithLight]

Yup Plus In black and white films, it defined the eyes better and gave better shape.

[@lunallena5594]

Thank Laura Jane! Revlon needs all of the sales it can get!!

[@sherribaker9135]

I thoroughly enjoyed this video. I had no idea that her lipsticks are still available. I'm going to look into it soon. She had amazing taste in cosmetics and skin care! Thank you so much for putting this video together!! By the way, I too love Chanel #5 since a friend of my mother introduced the scent to me when I was just 16. There was no looking back!

[@sunset4ever29]

Her makeup case had Elizabeth Arden cream eye shadows and she used Elizabeth Arden's White Lustre cream eye shadow first and then applied the pastel cream eye shadows. She also had Elizabeth Arden eyeliners in brown and black in her case. I did not know she used Nivea cream, but I will definitely buy some and try it. You gave a very good breakdown of what she wore. She had a natural beauty and her makeup doesn't look outdated.

[@thelegendofthem6120]

I bought erno lazlo and nevea... it seems nice...it's fragrant and softening but it's very greasy I think. Marilyn just was good for it I guess. Irreplaceable.

[@Sishel]

So cool! I would love to know how her bleached hair was toned, so perfect and shiny

[@chelsea-t]

Marilyn had such natural beauty!

[@bevballard7516]

A great video, loved it. Marilyn was one of a kind. Still aggravated Kim K wore her dress🤣🤣Thanks Laura!!

[@ConnieinVirginia]

Revlon has some very nice lipsticks. I have a few of them. Oil of Olay original smells so nice.

[@tuulalaine9894]

Max Factor was the only foundation when it was available at drug stores that I would get compliments on having such natural peaches and cream complexion! Too bad I sometimes got little pimples on my forehead from using it back in the day. No wonder it was used so much in Hollywood. My sister used my Max Factor foundation and she got complimented that she looked like a dream. It really was special.

[@dawnpratt4608]

When she radiated her light she was truly beautiful.

[@Propfaqs]

So thankful Marilyn lived long before the time of fillers and Botox and the myriad of other procedures available today. Through Marilyn we have enduring images of natural beauty in every respect.

[@Digmer]

She had surgery tho.

[@Propfaqs]

@@Digmer her nose?

[@heresjohnny5307]

She apparently had a very subtle rhinoplasty and a small chin implant (which dissolved by 1958). Regardless, she was absolutely georgeous before this and after.

[@squeakyb.7709]

@@heresjohnny5307 as well as a blepharoplasty and electrolysis to the hairline, amongst other things. Still gorgeous, but altered.

[@heresjohnny5307]

@@squeakyb.7709 yes agreed!

[@amandaorr3664]

This is such a beautiful video, that you put together with a lot of thought. For some of your next videos can you do it about ancient beauty rituals/remedies from different cultures? Cultures like indigenous people, ancient Greeks, Japan, South Korea, other Asian countries, and explore South American beauty. I think that it would be interesting to see the differences between cultures. I love your videos and how you explain everything!!!!

[@redlikewineagain697]

I enjoyed this video ♥ But I do think Marilyn Monroe just had good genes and good skin and that none of those products were the cause of her skin looking so good. Maybe the makeup helped. I have super oily skin and cannot use most of Enro Lazlo's products. I say *most* because I haven't used them all. But when I did, I noticed my skin was breaking out. Scanned them and discovered they were full of silicone. And that powder called "Shake-It Tinted Treatment" that supposedly gave Marilyn her flawless look has talc. So, I know she didn't have oily skin. Talc and silicone are known pore cloggers for people like me with oily/acne prone skin. Sucks because I'd love to use so many of these products but they're not right for my skin type. I have bad genes, unfortunately. But...I did enjoy this video. Thank you ♥

[@missyford1397]

But even good genes won’t help without skincare. I come from prone to wrinkle easily so I use skincare and at 64 don’t have the deep wrinkles that all my relatives had/have.

[@redlikewineagain697]

@@missyford1397 Well...sure. Yes, I agree. But I guess my point was (w/o it being said) was that at 36, her beautiful skin was likely due to good genes and makeup rather than skincare. If she would have lived to be in her 50s + and post menopause, then we could truly see if any of that skincare did any good. But yeah...at 64, you need skin cream, etc.

I wish Max Factor was still sold in stores.

[@TheBabyblossom87]

It is here in Europe, very affordable to, i have borth the pan stik foundation and creme puff powder as my go to products, they make my skin look really good and it stays on all day, doesn’t feel cakey either🤷‍♀️😊 maybe look online? Some stores may ship to your location🤷‍♀️

[@talktothehandreviews]

When saw Laura Jane had another great Marilyn's Makeup video, I clicked immediately!!!! You do an awesome job LJ!

[@deena681]

Thank you Laura!! This was really interesting!! Revlon has great lipsticks. I hope Revlon, Arden and Almay will still be around.

[@corinnegivens8547]

She'd be 96 now & we all know she'd be the most gorgeous 96yr old on the planet.😍❤RIP MARILYN❤❤I wish she would've been able to live a full happy life. Id love to have seen all of the amazing things she would've done❤💋

[@marissalyn]

I’m so sad max factor isn’t sold like it used to be😭💔

[@Annelie_perhonen5]

It might be sold more if it were without animal testing🙂 and perhaps it's using carmine as a colourant as well. There's also the question of small amounts of lead in some red dyes accumulating in the body over time, I feel like we should be more worried what is being sold to us

[@denisebledsoe8836]

I love everything Marilyn Monroe.. thank you Laura!

Hey Laura. I really love your videos. I listen to them to fall asleep at night as they help with my anxiety. I just wanted to make a suggestion - your intro seems a little long in this video, and you kind of repeat yourself a little bit. For some people that may be new to your channel, that might be off putting. Thanks for putting out great content! Would love to see you cover more international stars of the old Hollywood era!

[@Laurajaneatelier]

Thank you! I think it’s just like that for this video but I will keep that in mind
